For the second week in a row a nasty south wind appeared suddenly onSaturday morning, making the James River Henley course unrowable, andmoving the racing to College Creek. The wind got stronger as the racingprogressed, turning from a strong tailwind to a downright nasty one. Thelast race of the day, women's varsity eights, was canceled due to thesudden appearance of lightning. Skies were partly cloudy and temperaturesrose into the 70s.
